Show us your 8 inch Victors!

Post by AmberolaAndy »

After seeing threads like “Show us your Berliners” “Show us your early cylinders” or “show us your 1920s/30s changers” and not being able to participate due to budgetary reasons and just plain not being able to find any near me. I’m going to start one of these threads that I can finally participate in! :twisted:

So do you have any of those elusive Victor 8 inch records from 1906-1907? I currently have 4 of them. (Which is 4 more than any 7 inch Victor or Berliner that I have.)

Here are some of mine. I recorded one of them not too long ago. It is a bit worn as are all of my 8" records. I would like to have transferred more of them, but they just do not sound that great with lots of distortion. Here is the YouTube link to the one I did transfer. It is the record in the upper left side of the picture below.
